Whats it weigh?

How do you attach the metal fretboard to the maple neck? What glue?


And whats gotho tuners? hehe
 
Re: D&C X-Fusion done :) steel body guitar for the Metalheads

first the fretboard is NOT glued to the neck but screwed
the screws are there where the dots has to be :)

The Nut is attached to the steel fretboard it gives a lot more sustain and a clearer sound
the neck is Hard Maple and customized with stain to give it a rough look

Re: D&C X-Fusion done :) steel body guitar for the Metalheads

The engraving is all done by hand so no acid is used
and i give the body a bended side to give more play comfort
the guitar weights around the 4,5 kg for i don't know how much lbs that is :)
